Notice to Subscriber!.
Look at the date on your paper
and see when your subscription
expires. As announced hereto-
fore all who have not paid up to
the first of this year will be dis-
continued after this issue. If
you fail to get the next issue of
the Democrat you may know that
yonr time is out and your name
taken from the list. It is not the
intention of the management to
cut any one off who really want
the paper, but we take it for
granted that you do not want it
if you have failed to send in your
renewal. It is also the purpose
of the management to send the
paper to those only who are paid
in advance, but it will require
some little time to get it on this
basis. In fact we will give every
body a fair chance to renew, and
when we think this has been done
the paper will be sent to those
only who have paid in advance
and as subscriptions expire they
will be promptly discontinued.
In this departure we are fol-
lowing the business methods of
other first class newspapers. It
is hoped that no one will take of-
fense at this as the rule will ap-
ply to all alike. - We are sure that
ninety per cent of our subscribers
will heartily endorse this system
of sending the paper to them for
the time paid for only. The
Democrat is only 50 cents a year
within the easy reach of all, and
just a little above actual cost, and
it can easily be seen that it must
be ran on the paid in advance
system. We are loath to sever
oar connection with any of the
old time readers of the Democrat
but in some instances it may be
necessary to do this in enforcing
a strict adherence to the rule.
However we would be exceeding
ly glad to receive the renewal of
the entire list.
We are glad to announce that
our recent Piano Contest has
placed our subscription list in
such a condition that there are
exceptionally few that have not
paid in advance, butit will be very
displeasing to us should we be
forced to curtail our list in the
least. Dont wait till another day
but send in your renewal NOW.
Bob Gresham, of Temple, has
been made a member of the
"Good Fellowship" committee
for the National Convention of
Elks which is to meet in Dallas
this summer. If the other mem-
bers of this "Good Fellowship"
committee are really in Gresham s
class the visiting Elks will return
home with a lingering desire to
become Texans. ,
and commercial interests of the
state to meet at Fort Worth on
the 12th and 18th of this month
for the purpose of discussing
legislation. A private letter to
the editor of the Democrat ex-
plains that the real object of this
meeting is to decide what legis-
lation we dont need. We are in
hearty sympathy with this move-
ment if that be the object. As
heretofore intimated by this
paper, we need about half of the
present laws on the statutes wip-
ed out. For mony years the leg-
islature of Texas has been com-
posed of ambitious little small
bore lawyers that were imbued
with the insane idea that each
had to pass or attempt to pass
some law or other that they
might lead their constituents to
believe that they were earning
their mileage and per diem.
Thus they have become the
easy prey of the shrewd legis-
lator and lobbyist. The past
year the people have howled them
selves hoarse condemnatory of
the Thirthieth legislature, but
they made their noise too late.
In realty the Democrat doesn't
see mnch difference in the per
sonelofthe last legistative and
its predecessors. If the people
would use less abuse of our leg-
islative bodies and vote better the
public welfare would be better
subserved. We are now on the
eve of choosing the Thirty-First
Legislature, and now is the time
to do the kicking—be careful how
you cast your ballot.

D. E. Patterson,
Mayor of the City of Belton
Judd Mortimer Lewis.
Waco Times-Herald.
At Baylor University tonight
the elocution class will recite
Judd Mortimer Lewis poems
only, which sounds like an echo
from the old Democratic plat-
forms.
Judd Mortimer Lewis isn't a
bird, and yet he sings as instinc-
tively as the nightingale and often
as sweetly. His chief theme is
childhood, and it's no make-be-
lieve; he literally lives in that
realm, and the rest of us are of
no concern, save for our ducats.
Mr. Lewis came to Texas as
the representative of a publish-
ing concern, and he fell under
the spell of the magnolias and
went to singing. Some one con-
nected with the Houston Post re-
cognized his ability and the paper
and the poet began to exchange
notes, to the gratification of
thousands on top of thousands.
We give it up; we can't under-
stand how one person can grind
so much stuff and "make good"
evey time. The ancients would
have regarded him as a mes-
senger from heaven.
The Baylor compliment is botb
nique and appropriate. It sim-
ply says that Lewis, and that's
all any man has a right to expect.

MR. GANDERBONE'S
MARCH FORECAST
The ides of March will come again,
When Caesar's blood was let;
The foes of Bryan will hide out
Behind the parapet;
And when he sees them lurking there,
He'll guess their fell intent
And run just like his friends all hope
He'll run for President.
The candidates Repubican will
pass the stand again, and the,
portly form of Mr. Taft will show
a handsome gain; the whisker lets
of Mr. Hughes will float upon the
breeze, the fleet that sailed Ma-
gellan's Straits will cruise the
western seas; the infant boom of
Cortelyou will grimly yield the
ghost, and the fleet will run the
banquets on the other Latin
coast.
Another lot of foreign counts,
and busted sports and old, will
come across to marry moreofour
dead easy gold; a count will
marry a million cool and a dis-
count two or three, and gold and
girl (and horse laugh loud) they'll
all put out to sea; and while the
Goulds give Boui one—just one—
more chance, alack, we'll all steal
off and kick ourselves quite low
down on the back.
The country papers will get used
To Uucle Sam's mandate
That they may not hold readers who
Are not paid up to date;
But the Government will not assist
At squaring things, somehow,
With old subscribers made so mad
They never will pay.
March was the first month of
the Roman year, and was named
from Mars, the god of war.
Mars looked like a twin brother
to Richard P. Hobson, and he
was the regu lar Roman delegate
to the Peace Conference at The
Hague. He was supposed to be
the father of Romulus, the found-
er of Rome, but he was not, he
was only the young man's god-
father. In ancient warfare it
was customary to place a good
bronze bust of Mars on the field
and then fight for it.
The comedy of life will be
about what it h as been—the men
will labor day and night, and the
wives of men will spin. They'll
have a club for every day and
never to go; they'll learn to talk
of many themes their husbands
do not know; they'll hear a lec-
turer from Greece, another on
Japan, another on the Renaiis-
ance, and several on man; they'll
hire a lot of long-haired freaks to
make them erudite, they'll work
on papers every morn, and look
up things at night; and their hus-
bands will get cold supper and
suffer ridicule—and the children
will grew up like wolves, While
Mamma goes to school.
The money indiscreetly loaned
Will faithfullly keep Lent,
And a lady teacher will sit on
The pen when it is bent;
But when the principal responds
To screams heard through the house
She'll not tell him what happened, but
Will say she saw a mouse.
Until the 21st, March will be
under the influence of the zodia
cal sign known as Pisces, the
Fish. Pisces will induce his
relative, Stuyvesant Fish to take
the Illinois Ceniral fight into the
U. S. Supreme Court, where E.
H. Harriman will be ditched
with two bum lamps, a derailed
backbone, and a swift kick in the
caboose.
After the 21st, March will be
under the influence of Aries, the
sign of the Head. Under this
sign, old heads will come to the
front in the presidential race, and
Uncle Joe Cannon will come out
of last place and make the Presi-
dent put two more burrs in the
the spacious bosom of Mr. Taft's
pants.
Persons born under Pisces
drink like fish and vote wet.
They make excellent subordi-
nates, like Friday and Loeb.
They can say no, and it is futile
to expose them to any more life
insurance, for they wont take it
They are very cautious, and al-
ways take seats near the fire es
cape.
The Vernal Equinox will come,
And the Irish will parade;'
The booming bulllfrog will resume
His music in the glade.
The mole will burrow in the lawn,
And the rash duck hunter toot
His caller while pneumonia drills
A leakhole in his boot.
And then the gentle spring
will come and the poet will essay,
with swelhng breast and bliss
his bum and Muse-attended lay;
the rooster will announce the
dawn, and the hen will scratch
the dirt, and everybody will put
on a thinner undershirt. The
sassafras will brew again to tone
the system rank and the wash
out will upset the trainandthrow
it down the bank; the gander and
the goose will moolt, the meadow
will be wet, and the spring-in-
toxicated colt will turn a sum-
merset. The house will be clean-
ed up again, the robbins come in
drove, and the husband will eat
bread and cheese behind the
kitchen stove. The young man's
heart will beat for love, and the
widow in her weeds will find a
man and seize him where Estrella
wore the beads.
And then aweet April will return,
And John D. get in line
And pay hie month's installment on
Tha| thirty million fine.
Ganderbone.

THE KITCHEN
Anna Steese Richardson, in the
March number of the Woman's
Home Companion, gives some helps
that are of inestimable value to the
housewife and especially to the girl
who earns her own living.
One woman writes her:
"How can I earn money without
leaving home? Can a woman whose
one talent is housekeeping turn it
to practical account?
Her reply in part is:
"The woman who can cook well,
who knows how to prepare dainty
as well as wholesome food, who has
something worth offering in the
culinary line, is really better off to-
day than the home girl who is an
indifferent cook, but free to turn
to office or store work when the
family income drives her to wage
earning.
"In every city the country over
you will find women who seldom
leave their kitchens, yet make in-
comes that put a stenographer or
bookkeeper to shame.
"They bake cakes, bread and pies
for women's work, or grocers. They
specialize on salads or jellies or
home-made candies. They provide
college spreads in university towns.
They cater to hostesses who cannot
afford the professional caterer from
che nearest city and whose servants
are not to be trusted with dainties
for luncheons, card parties, recep-
tions, etc."
The Thrice-a-Week World.
A President otf the United
States will be elected this year
Who is he and who is the man he
will beat?' Nobody yet knows,
but the Thrice-a-Week edition of
the New York World will tell you
every step and every detail of
what promises to be a campaign
of absorbing interest. It may
not tell you what you hope, but
it will tell you what is. The
Thrice-a-Week World long ago
established a character for im-
partiality and fearlessness in the
publication of news, and this it
will maintain. If you want the
news as it really is subscribe
to the Thrice-a-Week edition of
the world, which comes to you
every day except Sunday and
is thus practically a daily at
at the price of a weekly.
The Thrice-a-Week World's
regular subscription price is only
$1.00 per year, and this pays "for
156 papers. We offer this un-
equalled newspaper and The
Democrat together for one year
for $1.25. _____
While Dr. Bessie M. Andrus
of Chicago was recently step-
ping upon the front platform of
a street car thte brake was sud-
dely released by the motorman
and the handle struck her on the
nose causing a compound frac-
ture. She brought suit against
the company to recover $20,000
damages for the injury. On the
witness stand the young woman
said her nose was of the perfect
Grecian type and was much ad-
mired for its graceful and perfect
lines. Since the accident its
beauty has been spoiled. The
court gave her a twenty-five hun-
dred dollar judgment for her
nose. This value placed on Gre-
cian noses should put all who
have them, on notice. The nose
masher can mash any old com-
mon nose, but if he gets up a-
gainst the Grecian type the own-
er has got him for not leas than
twenty-five hundred dollars.

Cause of Stomach Trouble.
When a man has trouble with his
stomach you may know that he is eat
ing more than he should or of some
article of food or drink not suited to
his age or occupation, or that his
bowels are habitually constipated.
Take Chamberlain's ' Stomach and
Liver Tablets to regulate the bowels
and improve the digestion and see if
the trouble does not disappear. Ask
for a free sample. Sold by all drug-
gists.
NEW THINGS FOR
THE HOUSEKEEPER
In the March Woman's Home
Companion, Fannie Merritt Farmer
gives her attention to the needs of
the young housekeeper, and her
task is well worthy the careful
reading of any woman of the home
who is on the lookout for new, sim
pie and good things.
A bean rarebit is just one of her
many good hints to housekeepers:
"Just the way to use the last of
the baked beans! Melt two table-
spoonfuls of butter and add one
teaspoonful of salt, one eighth of a
teaspoonful of paprika, one-half
cupful of milk and one cupful of
cold mashed baked beans. Stir
until thoroughly heated, and adc
one half cupful of grated soft
cheese. As soon as the cheese has
melted, serve on small circular
pieces of toasted bread or zephyr-
ettes. It may be readily seen that
this receipt is admirably adapted
for chafing dish use."

A President of the United
